<sort> Tag ?
by Moritz Karbach 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Hi, is there something like a <sort>-Tag in Mediawiki? I have a list of links in my Wiki, and I'd like so have them sorted without doing much, eg like <sort> * [[link4]] * [[link2]] * [[link3]] * [[link1]] </sort> becoming * [[link1]] * [[link2]] * [[link3]] * [[link4]] Cheers, - Moritz

help please
by Alli Lenters 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi, I have a question about the configuration of mediawiki. It seems to automatically make the first letter in a user name upper case, and I have a user who does not like this. I managed to manually change the name to lowercase in the database, but it still shows it as uppercase on the profile page, etc. Can someone tell me what it is that converts the first letter to uppercase and how I can change this? Thanks Alli

Mediawiki very slow in Firefox vs IE
by Nic Suzor 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi, I'm running mediawiki 1.4beta6. Pageloads are taking up to 10 seconds when I use Firefox, but are much quicker when I use IE. Has anyone had this problem before, and is there a simple fix? I'm running behind Apache2, and my rewrite rules look like: RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index\.php RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^title= RewriteRule ^.*$ /index.php [L,QSA] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(stylesheets|images|skins)/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(redirect|texvc|index).php RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/error/(40(1|3|4)|500).html RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon.ico RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots.txt # Rewrite http://wiki.domain.tld/article properly, this is the main rule RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L,QSA] When I look at the Apache logs, the reason seems pretty obvious. The requests from Firefox are duplicated up to 20 times each. I captured two request sets for the main page, one made by firefox and the other by IE. There are 65 GET requests in the Firefox session, and only 7 in the IE log. I've attached the logs. Anyone know why this could be? Thanks, Nic Suzor

(Newbie) Install problem declaring class namespace
by Al B 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi all, I get the following error when I try and install a WIKI on a new site. ---Report--- MediaWiki 1.4rc1 installation * PHP 4.3.10: ok * PHP server API is apache; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title) * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support. * PHP is configured with no memory_limit. * Have zlib support; enabling output compression. * Turck MMCache not installed, can't use object caching functions * Couldn't find GD library or ImageMagick; image thumbnailing disabled. * Installation directory: /a/[snip]/home/[snip]/public_html/wiki * Script URI path: /wiki * Warning: $wgProxyKey is insecure Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class namespace in /a/[snip]/home/[snip]/public_html/wiki/includes/Namespace.php on line 52 ---Report--- I have previously *tried* to install a wiki. Older versions throw back even more errors (but all of roughly the same form). Newer versions merely throw back the namespace class error. Is there a particular reason for this? If there is not one specific reason,can anyone suggest how I go about finding out where the problem lies? I'm on a fairly steep learning curve here, and clear help would be brilliant. Cheers Al p.s. the [snips] are me being aware that I don't know enough about security yet :) --

Anybody get 1.3.11 working?
by Muzaffer Ozakca 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

I upgraded our version of 1.3.10 to 1.3.11. Now I have an empty page instead of the main page. Since we modified the original MW code heavily, I made changes manually but double checked it later (if you know an easier way of doing this, please let me know). Here's a piece from the log: Start requestGET /.../index.php?title=Main_Page Host: ... User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefo x/1.0 Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q= 0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300Cookie: wikidbUserName=Muzo; devwikidbUserID=3; echoesdbUserName=WikiSysop; devwikidbUserNa me=Muzoop; PHPSESSID=xxx Servr: http://d...

re: [Mediawiki-l] wfSpecialDisambiguation is broken. Link tables have changed...

From: Brion Vibber <brion(a)pobox.com> >Al B wrote: >> Got this error when I tried to access the disambiguation maintenance >> page. Any reason why? >It's obsolete and cannot be used unless someone rewrites it. Obsolete? In the sense that it isn't a functionality that is considered worth it any more? Or obsolete in the sense that my specific isntallation has cacked up and is obsolete? And, that someone? Is that me? And if it is. Sorry, as I said, I'm not PHP savvy.. so I want to avoid making mistakes by misinterpreting help. Cheers Al --

edittoken not valid when using php-fcgi
by Philipp Albig 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi, I'm using MediaWiki : 1.3.10 PHP : 4.3.8 (cgi-fcgi) MySQL: 4.0.22-Max-log and using htaccess to fcgi my php AddHandler php-fastcgi .php When doing so, there's a problem with the edittoken. It seems to be unvalid when sending back the changes of an article. Instead of saving, the preview is shown. (When I change line 76 in editpage.php, so that it's alway true, it works.) When using php(apache) all is fine. Any ideas how to solve that or where could be the reason? Many thanks and greetings, Philipp
